Overview

The 4-wheel steer JCB 4CX 17 Super is the largest backhoe model we produce, and this latest incarnation is a product of our 60-plus years as the backhoe market leader, bearing a host of performance, comfort, safety and efficiency improvements.

Like our new award-winning EcoMax T4-compliant engine, which meets Tier 4 legislation without a bulky DPF or SCR; compact installation provides uncompromised visibility and maneuverability. The 4CX 17 super also has high ground clearance and 4 equal-sized wheels, so it can tackle terrain unlike any other backhoe.

Description

A DRIVETRAIN WITHOUT COMPROMISE

The 4CX 17 Supers new EcoMax engine is designed, tested and built by JCB to work perfectly with JCB axles and gearboxes. T4 compliant EcoMax engines produce power and torque at around 1,500 rpm for responsiveness and fuel-efficient matching of the transmission and hydraulics.

Because EcoMax doesnt use exhaust after-treatment, it doesnt need costly heat-resistant lube oils or DEF, saving service costs. And, because EcoMax can be de-emissionized to run on lower-grade fuels, JCB backhoes are resalable across different territories, boosting residual values.

The JCB 4CX 17 Super engines are field proven. Weve built 200,000 engines since 2004, and weve tested EcoMax for 110,000 hours in 70 different machines across the toughest applications and environments.

JCBs unique TorqueLock system is standard-fit on all 109hp (81kW) powershift 4CX 17 Super models. Combined with our optional 6-speed Autoshift transmission, it can help save up to 25% on fuel and 10% on road travel time.

An optional limited slip differential gives a JCB 4CX 17 Super superior traction and performance, as well as reduced tire wear. The 4CX 17 Super JCB backhoe loader is fit with EcoRoad technology to provide the high efficiency and productivity levels during road travel. Fuel consumption is reduced, while machine speed and working areas are increased by up to 10%.

The JCB 4CX 17 Super has 3 modes of 4-wheel steering and a large 1.1m3 bucket capacity for exceptional on-site productivity. Our 6-speed autoshift transmission with floor mounted kickdown switch provides great pulling power on the 4CX 17 Super.

Our new improved Powerslide features a larger hydraulic ram, which produces more power to quickly and effortlessly reposition the backhoe loaders excavator end.

Theres more tractive effort at the 4CX 17 Supers pile than ever, thanks to a new variable flow pump power management system and the new JCB EcoMax engine.

The 4CX 17 Supers 4-ram self-leveling loader automatically adjusts the shovel on both the raise and lower cycle without any need for manual adjustment. It also provides unhindered front shovel visibility, especially when loading at height.

The optional combined hammer and bi-directional circuit provides optimized low-flow and high-flow hydraulic power with low back pressure for greater attachment versatility.

JCBs new hydraulic quickhitch makes attachment changes on the 4CX 17 Super quick, safe and compliant with current and future legislation.

At the loading end of the JCB 4CX 17 Super, our return to dig feature automatically resets the bucket into the loading position, and selectable transmission disconnect diverts maximum hydraulic power from the engine to the loader arms.

STRENGTH: WHY COMPROMISE?

The JCB 4CX 17 Super's axles and transmission are designed to withstand a 12,000-hour design life; heavyweight axles are built to withstand serious shock loads. The rear axle alone has a static load rating of 55,125lbs (25,011kg), and a dynamic load rating of 27,562lbs, (12,505kg).

We use stress-relieved fabrication for the 4CX 17 Supers boom  by heating materials to over 650?C for over 16 hours, we make sure the metal is evenly heated, doubling boom life.

Hydraulic hoses are approved to work down to -40°C and all JCB 4CX 17 Super materials are tested to extreme temperatures and exposed to chemical, salt, oil and sunlight to ensure maximum protection.

A QUALITY WORKPLACE

The JCB 4CX 17 Super is designed to enable a fatigue-free, productive day's work. The cab is rubber-mounted and isolated for low noise and vibration.

A JCB 4CX 17 Super cab is inspired by the automotive industry for familiarity. A heated air suspension seat and heated front windshield are just some of the quality features you will find in this state-of-the-art cab.

For more comfort and less material spillage, the 4CX 17 Supers Smoothride System (SRS) minimizes bounce during travel. You can quickly reset your bucket to the digging position with our return-to-dig feature too.

High back-off brakes reduce viscous drag during roading and r handling, which improves economy by up to 1%.

The optional handheld tool circuit means you can increase versatility by using your 4CX 17 Super as a power source for handheld tools, such as drills, breakers, cutters and even water pumps.

The JCB 4CX 17 Super backhoe loaders is a quiet places to work, both inside and out  particularly the 109hp (81kW) models, which are the quietest in the industry.

To make operators feel right at home in the 4CX 17 Super, they can opt for the standard-fit traditional manual control system, with a choice of three control patterns  JCB X, SAE+ and ISO+. Theres even an in-cab cool box.

LESS SERVICING, MORE SERVICE

An upgraded engine and fuel filter prevents engine wear and extends our EcoMax engines working life.

Daily under the hood checks are a thing of the past with the JCB 4CX  all engine checks are done automatically by the CANBUS electronics engine management system.

For an even more efficient backhoe experience, JCBs new multi-functional instrument control panel can provide the 4CXs current and average fuel consumption, as well as service faults and critical faults.

The plastic fuel tank on a JCB 4CX Eco is completely rustproof to prevent rust forming in the tank, which protects the fuel injection system. The single-piece composite cab floor is also rustproof, with molded water channels.

LiveLink telematics can provide accurate up-to-date machine health information on your 4CX. The system can also maximize uptime by making it easy to service your machines at the most efficient times possible.

The 4CXs power brakes utilize the existing hydraulic supply, reducing operator costs and daily service checks.

A large fuel tank means extended periods between fill ups for a longer, more productive working day.

THE SAFE CHOICE

Getting into a JCB 4CX 17 Super is easy and safe  there are large grab handles, a wide door opening, and open grid design steps that prevent dirt build-up.

JCB backhoes have always had class-leading braking performance but the 4CX 17 Super takes this even further. Modeled on car brakes, our power brakes provide proportional braking throughout the pedal travel for superb control.
